Stefan

Growl and Prowl, Book 2

De: Eve Langlais

Narrado por: Grace Grant

For her, he'll unleash the tiger within.

Stefan's getting married for the good of his family, because if he doesn't, the local werewolves will run them out of town. He's not exactly happy about it, but it could be worse. His bride is quite beautiful when she's not completely off her canine leash. As beta for her pack, she's used to giving orders and has a bite to go with her bark. However, if she thinks he's giving in to the beast within, then she'll be waiting a long time.

Stefan's spent the last decade keeping his tiger caged. Past experience has shown him he can't lose control. Yet when he's captured by the company that created him, he'll realize he doesn't have a choice.

He'll have to learn how to growl if he wants to protect those he loves.

Contains mature themes.

Not enough backstory, or front story, or fun, or…

“Maybe that explains my urge to mark my condo”
After a zippy, zany book 1, I was hoping for more hilarity as Stefan and his adopted family realize there’s a whole world of shifters out there. Sadly, even with his family tangling with the local lycan pack, it was mostly blah, blah talking about why and how they’d co-exist.

“Not until you put a ring on it”
Meanwhile, there’s barely any time spent on character development or backstory. Nimway is sister to the Lycan alpha. Stefan’s been harboring survivor’s guilt since escaping the evil scientists. Oh, and he’s been struggling to figure out the shifter thing on his own for a while. That’s about it … and I needed more to invest in this couple.

“She was that freshly frosted cake that begged a finger to take a swipe.”
The devotion to baked goods aside, this author’s formula writing style was just okay here. The nooky was disappointing, especially when her favorite reference to “nether lips” was dropped. Fine as a free listen, and worth it as part of the three book collection, but glad I didn’t burn a credit on it.
